Life at Dunder Mifflin is anything but ordinary, as the cast of The Office continues to explore the comedic lives of those in the paper business in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Canadian fans will be happy this week as on November 13 Michael Scott {Steve Carell) is sent on a business trip to the frigid city of Winnipeg, Manitoba, in the episode "Business Trip", bringing Andy (Ed Helms) and Oscar (Oscar Nunez) along for the ride while the others, including Angela Martin (Angela Kinsey) hold down the fort at the office.

Chatting with anyone from The Office always makes for quirky conversation and last week we had the chance to chat with Ed Helms and Angela Kinsey on a conference call about life at Dunder Mifflin, their characters, what we can expect down the road, and whether Ed misses his days delivering fake news.

THE DEADBOLT: Angela, is your character working on a plan to get something on Phyllis so that she can get back into the party planning committee?

ANGELA KINSEY: Oh, you know it. I mean not that the writers have told me, but I definitely think that she's probably always got her eye out on everyone. I wouldn't be surprised if like Angela Martin has a file on her minutes of everyone's behavior that she can use at some point.

ED HELMS: God, you're right. She's like the J. Edgar Hoover of The Office.

KINSEY: Totally, totally. She's keeping tabs on everyone.

THE DEADBOLT: Ed, what do you think Andy will do if and when he finds out about Dwight and Angela? Will his anger management training still hold?

HELMS: Let's see, I feel like this is a dangerous area for me to get into. But just in terms of - in broad terms, I think that Andy's anger issues - I'd like to think that they're still very much there. I'm not sure anyone who has a real problem with that ever fully gets past it. He's really learned a lot of coping mechanisms and has - I have this image in my head. You know, you can buy like an inflatable, like a little inflatable gremlin or something, and it's like you can beat this up and take your anger out on this thing.

So Andy has one of those at home. But for some reason I like the idea that Andy beats up this little inflatable doll, like so much that he swings it around his room and he's actually damaging things around his house, like it's not working because he's still damaging things around him. But yeah, there may be some little like - he has a little punching bag - metaphorical punching bag or literal, I don't know, in his garage that allows him to kind of stay a little more centered and adhere to social norms a little bit better.

THE DEADBOLT: Does he have any new nicknames that you're working on?

HELMS: You know, it's funny. I forgot this but someone recently reminded me that - and this was just in improvisation during a shoot - but I had called BJ's character, Ryan, Big Turkey one day because, you know, Big Tuna came from Jim bringing in a tuna sandwich... So the theory being that one day BJ brought in a turkey sandwich and he's Big Turkey now. But I actually am quite a nicknamer in real life, too. So there's always something brewing.

Other Conference Call Highlights:

Ed Helms on how he approaches Andy:

"I think it's funny, like a lot of characters in comedy are atrocious in real life and it's the sort of bubble of television or a movie or whatever sort of vehicle you're looking at it through that makes it - it gives you license to laugh at it. And for me, I guess Andy - I think - I've tried to find a lot to love about Andy and a real sort of sincerity. If anything, he's guilty of caring too much sometimes.

"But I think it's partly - we have the ability to laugh at jerks on TV, but also playing the dichotomy, playing both the positive and the negative and hopefully trying to give the audience something to hope for with Andy. But also a lot to just kind of roll your eyes at, at the same time."

Angela Kinsey on whether she gets grief from fans about her character:

"Not yet, but I kind of stay close to home with my baby. I'm a little afraid. No, I wonder what it would be like to be sort of out in a mall right now. But, you know, I have to say our fans are such die hard fans of the show and they're really great at appreciating all the characters and their quirks. And I think they've seen enough of us outside of work that they know that we're not that character. But occasionally, like one or two - like I had this woman come up to me and say, 'Will you take a picture with my friend? She was too scared to approach you because she was afraid you might be like your character.'

"And then I was in an elevator and this man said - I guess I had my Angela Martin face on which is scary that it's become like my natural resting face. And he came up to me and he goes, 'Hey, everything is going to be okay, you know.' And I was like. 'Oh, no. What do I look like right now?' But it's kind of an occupational hazard I think for me to wear a frown when I leave work."

Ed Helms on whether he missed doing the fake news during this election:

"I don't miss that really much at all. I feel so lucky to be a part of The Office and it's so fun, so consistently. I loved being in the fake news business. But it was so taxing to do those interviews and to just - and especially - I have great memories from the 2004 campaign coverage. But it's really, really hard - really hard work. And it's very hard on your constitution. So I loved it, but I don't yearn for it."

Angela on being the saucy office minx lately:

"I don't know what's happened to my character. She's crazy like I don't know. It is so much fun to play because it's just like a buffet. There's so much to choose from happening with her. And so as an actor I love it. My poor dad is being put through the ringer though. He'll watch an episode and he'll be like, 'Are you serious, man? What's going on?' You know, because his daughter is like kind of the office skank. I don't know. But it's definitely a lot of fun to play."
